The matchday 3 encounter between Nigeria and Libya in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers has been scheduled.
While the first leg will take place at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on Friday, October 11, 2024.
The return leg, part of matchday 4, is set for October 15 at Tripoli International Stadium.
Nigeria started the qualifiers strong, having secured a 3-0 victory against Benin Republic and a goalless draw in Kigali against Rwanda.
Currently, Nigeria tops Group D with 4 points, while Libya sits at the bottom with just 1 point from the same number of matches.
The 2025 AFCON will be held in Morocco in December 2025.
Nigeria has faced Libya four times in the past, winning all encounters.
Their most recent meeting was during the 2018 AFCON qualifiers, where Nigeria won 3-2, with Odion Jude Ighalo netting a brace.
As the team prepares for the upcoming match, it appears likely that Augustin Eguavoen will continue as the interim manager, with the federation showing no signs of announcing a permanent coach soon.
